Cream page, caption chip, card grows up

One frame of raw footage, a hard cut at 0.04 s to a cream graph-paper page with a dark caption chip, a serif title that fades up at 0.5 s and a rounded portrait card that grows up from the bottom between 0.5 and 0.9 s. Education and tutorial clips that want a tidy designed opening.

Open my video with this hook: "Cream page, caption chip, card grows up" from the 24fps video editor library.
Preset JSON: https://24fps.dev/video-editor/hooks/cream-page-card-grow-serif-title-hook-e6x/preset.json (pass its "preset" to the engine).
Engine (MIT, no dependencies, ES module): https://24fps.dev/editor/engine.js. Download the engine next to your page (curl -O) rather than importing cross-origin, then import { mount } from "./engine.js" in a <script type="module"> served over http.
Wiring: root = a position:relative box at the video's size. media = { main }: main is a wrapper holding my video, filling the root. Then const fx = mount(root, { kind: "text", preset, media }) and call fx.render(seconds) every frame. The preset runs 3s from t = 0; offset t to place it later. It is seek-safe: drive it from the GSAP timeline in HyperFrames or call render(frame / fps) in Remotion. Before capturing frames, await (fx.ready ?? document.fonts.ready). Check it on my footage: if text is hidden behind the subject or doesn't read against my colours, nudge the layer positions or colours.
Replace the demo text with mine: set preset.layers[n].text (use \n for line breaks); if none given, write lines that fit my footage and tell me.
Hook formula: [Serif two-word title] + chip caption 'creating the right environment for [X]'
Pair with captions preset dark-bar-sans-lower-sentence (https://24fps.dev/video-editor/captions/dark-bar-sans-lower-sentence/preset.json); the captions kind takes script as [{ w, s, e, emph }], plus karaoke and activeColor.
Field reference: https://24fps.dev/video-editor/llms.txt. Keep sizes as fractions of the frame height so it works at any resolution. Credit: 24fps.dev/video-editor

Beats
0.0s Raw footage (flagged as a white-flash frame by the detector; it is the bright page arriving). → 0.0s Hard cut to cream graph paper; first words of the dark chip caption fade in mid-page (y about 0.7). → 0.5s Serif title ghost-fades in at about y 0.25; thin vertical rule at top centre. → 0.5s Rounded card (66% wide) reveals bottom-up and grows with a small overshoot. → 0.9s Card holds; caption chip updates every 0.8-1 s.
